Book discussion - I have a thought...

AmyP · 12-30-2005, 05:27 AM

Have any of you read "blessing of a skinned knee" it's a Jewish take on child rearing, which I found to be just excellent.

Any interest in doing a group discussion of the book - I thought we could tackle a chapter or so a week.

Let me know what you all think!

Amy,
I am in on this!! I think this is a great idea, and I have been looking for books like this. I received a few Borders gift certificates from students (I am an English teacher), and I needed a new book.

I will get it today!

Thanks for the recommendation!

I'd love to be game but I cannot find the time to even read Parent's Magazine articles these days alas

Wrote the title down though for future reference and reading when Quinny becomes less time consuming and a better sleeper...

I oredered it online from Amazon -- almost new too :-) -- but they said it would take ten days to arrive. Books generally arrive sooner then they say, but who knows. I'll post back here when I get it and why don't the rest of you do the same?!

I would love to join in also.. I will order the book right now... Great idea, I will post when it arrives.
